Verdict

First Excel's only win so far came over 6f on Fibresand. Zaria beat Dandys Perier at Chepstow in August but all of her wins so far have come on the Welsh track. The Happy Hammer has done most of his winning on the all-weather but Hawk Moth has only been raised 3lb for winning at Brighton and should be thereabouts again. TOP OFFER was consistent on the all-weather over the winter and has carried that form back on to the Turf. He looks reasonably treated on his latest third at Musselburgh so gets a tentative vote in a modest finale.
